4.0 out of 5 stars Experience based analysis, January 11, 2007
This review is from: Conversation and Community: Chat in a Virtual World (Paperback)
Lynn Cherny has analysed a chat community at the university through envolved participation. Therefore it is valuable. It's for all a linguistic study. There is some analysis of conflict and alienation but this wasn't the main purpose.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent research into the social aspects of MUDs., September 27, 2002
By 
First off, I'm a college freshman and a MUDder. I found this book in UNLV's library after looking for a book for my sociology class. I picked it up and flipped through it, and decided to check it out. It was a couple of weeks before I actually sat down and started to read it. I do have to say that Ms. Cherny has masterfully dissected what a social MUDder is. Insightful, Entertaining, and Exact, this book is an excellent read for a MUDder.
